I dreamt about Threadless last night. Only the second time I've done so. It was like this:

I had flown out to Chicago and was meeting with some people from threadless. Nobody in particular, just some guys in suits (that should have tipped me off right there.) They were showing me around this massive warehouse/office building. They were recruiting people to work there because "Our growth has been insane, lately." So they were really pushing me to move out. We went out and got into a limo. They told me how they had found the right area of the city to live in, based on my personality. And everyone knew my name. I was excited, but apprehensive because I was afraid there would be nowhere close to snowboard. I asked them about that and they told me they would find a place. It wasn't very convincing.

The dream ended there.

To the tune of "One of Us" by Joan Osbourne







What if Dog was one of us

Had a job like one of us

And a wife with a normal bust

That isn't over grown

I play soccer in a Saturday men's league, and at our last game I acquired a black eye. I was trying to make a play on the ball at the same time as an opponent, who was implementing the slide-tackle technique. His foot and my foot arrived at the ball at precisely the same moment. Because he was already on the ground, and I was upright and moving forward, I became the involuntary recipient of the bulk of the energy of that transaction. This resulted in me falling directly and voilently on my face. Subsequently, a minor internal hemorrhage began on the outer corner of my left eye. The past few days has seen the bruising spread a bit, but not to the outside. The discoloration seems to be content to remain around my eyelids, both upper and lower. So now, instead of a manly shiner, I am sporting what appears to be a one-eye-only bad Greendayesque mascara job. To me it looks very Clockwork Orange.

Anyway, I bring this up so that in the near future, when you start seeing this trend all over, you will know from whence it originated.

You're welcome.

I had the following dream at an early hour this morning:

I logged onto Threadless and checked my profile. All my designs were gone. I looked around for them for a short time, then decided to call Threadless. They told me that they had taken them down because tesco had started an online pizza parlor, and was going to use the titles of my designs as names for his various pies. I asked why he could just take them like that - they stated that, because they had decided not to print the designs, the titles automatically became public domain. Oddly, that sounded reasonable to me.

I think this was a direct result of the two extra-mustard hot dogs I ate shortly before going to bed...

Show me a little love...




Karma and I thank you.

Since being introduced to strip generator yesterday, I have pretty much accomplished nothing in the way of real work.

Some of my ramblings:

Lookee here

or here

More crap

Still more

yes, another one

and finally...

All in good clean fun...
